A couple weeks ago we released our first Free PowerPoint Template: Wooden here on WorkAwesome, and today we have another! This one is called Wrap and is a simple template that uses Helvetica Neue Ultralight, a very clean font to give a very professional feel to your next presentation.

So I thought I’d start a little series here on WorkAwesome of some free templates from old projects of mine, or quick ideas I have. I whipped up the first today which is a simple wooden background template, and you can download it below. Of course if you want super high quality templates and don’t mind paying a bit, you’ll find some great stuff on GraphicRiver’s PPT Templates category.

Some months ago we profiled 28 Creative Powerpoint Presentation Designs here on WorkAwesome and included in the line up were a couple by a very talented young Canadian named Jesse Desjardins. He does some wonderful work and after the post I contacted him to see if we could nab him for some Envato work too!

It’s hard to believe it’s almost a new decade, and with 2010 just around the corner it’s time to get celebrating the holiday season. There’s plenty happening around the Envato network of sites, read on to find out about it all!

In the last three years our Envato Marketplaces (FlashDen, ThemeForest, GraphicRiver, AudioJungle and VideoHive) have grown like gangbusters, with big communities, huge libraries of files and lots of activity. So when we set out to redesign them earlier this year everyone on the team knew it was going to be big. What we didn’t realise was HOW big it would eventually get! Today it gives me great pleasure to show you …

Staring at a computer screen is made marginally better if you have a nice desktop wallpaper to fill up the empty space. That’s why we’ve put together our very own WorkAwesome wallpaper set to make your desktop look kinda like an actual desktop! We’ve got lots of sizes and and nice empty space in the middle for all your icons and files. If you’re an iPhone user we’ve got a wallpaper for you too, and if you’re on a large iMac there’s a convenient space for the dock!

The best way to make work feel like not work is to do something you enjoy, and do it damn well. That’s why we’ve created WorkAwesome, a blog for people who want to be awesome at work. After all, if you’re going to spend eight hours a day doing something, you may as well put some heart into it!

Over the coming months our crack editor Joel Falconer and his team of uber worker writers will be publishing articles on everything from how to make a Powerpoint presentation that rocks to how to behave at the office Christmas party! We’ve got a brand new comic strip coming from the extremely talented NC Winters, and we’ll be opening up for contributions so the anybody and everybody can share their tips on how to be more awesome at work!
